Nice. Let's sit and wait patiently for a leak. It will appear somewhere sooner or later :)

Anyways, personally right now I'm more interested in new HTC Vision/T-Mobile G2/Desire Z - I'm dropping Milestone as soon as it becomes available (planned launch date is September 15, so it'll most probably be eariler than Milestone's 2.2).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DavieGee:
Woo! It Is Official :D

Just Checked The Page, If Motorola Are Saying It's Happening, Then Hopefully It Is..

Q4 Though? But Ah Well
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] nikosblade:
holy crap!its official!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] CFORDv:
finally I'm just glad motorola haven't abandoned the support for this phone.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
when it be release it will be possible to use a update from european milestone to update a latin american one?

i always wan't to now if this is possible.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] XeraN^:
Im glad that the Milestone get Froyo, bur i hope they will release a bug free version tho. :x

And i understand that they say Q4 so they have enough time to roll it out for all county's and they dont give an exact date.

It would be a nice xmas present :D (but lets hope they will release Froyo mutch sonner).

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
90% of the work is getting froyo onto the device... fixing the baseband stuff isn't too hard so I can't imagine them screwing over LATAM and Canada over when they're so close.... I guess there's always the Thai version if it comes down to it..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] shadowofdarkness:
Hopefully they come to Canada also. Multiple times I have tried other releases (Thai 2.36 and MotoFrenzy) with baseband and libril fixes. But I always end up back on a official Telus release so that I have a phone that is reliable to have a signal for more then a couple hours after a bootup. Since I have no home or work numbers My cell is the only way to contact me.

I get all the worst reported symptoms for some reason and I get them hard.

DO IT FOR ALL!!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
chill guys. Canada means 850/1900 is already covered. If they're this close, I'm pretty sure LATAM won't get screwed. Just wait. While I was worried when Canada didn't appear yet, I was at least 75% confident we'd get it anyway if they do the Thai release.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Menelkir:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but even if isn't possible to update via OTA (for brazillian milestones, for example), I think will not be dificult to make the update using a zipfile and after that, updating some files (like motofrenzy).

[Desire General] kagy:
Hi all,

I was trying to root with unrEVOked 3.1 on a 64bit Ubuntu installation and hit this problem and found a solution so I thought I'd post it up here to help any other newbies like me

Problem (running from terminal)

unrEVOked recovery reflash tool
git 7bb95e5
/usr/lib/gio/modules/libgioremote-volume-monitor.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
Failed to load module: /usr/lib/gio/modules/libgioremote-volume-monitor.so
/usr/lib/gio/modules/libgiogconf.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

/usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
Failed to load module: /usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so

I assume the problem is that reflash is 32 bit and my libs are 64, so install

frozenfox.freehostia.com/cappy/getlibs-all.deb

then

getlibs libgioremote-volume-monitor.so

This will install the 32 libs / gvfs and reflash is happy.
[Desire General] kongo09:
not solved for me

Unfortunately, this doesn't solve the problem for me:

kongo09@pepper:~/Downloads$ sudo ./reflash
unrEVOked recovery reflash tool
git version: 4f78f67
/usr/lib/gio/modules/libgvfsdbus.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

ERROR: n = -1, errno = 19 (No such device)
ERROR: n = -1, errno = 19 (No such device)
ERROR: n = -1, errno = 19 (No such device)

This was my first attempt. unrevoked reported "done" in the end, but it didn't work. Now I followed your suggestion:

kongo09@pepper:~/Downloads$ getlibs libgioremote-volume-monitor.so
libgioremote-volume-monitor.so: gvfs

Same error messages. And again it didn't work although unrevoked reported "done".

This is on Ubuntu 10.04 64bit. Any help appreciated.
[Desire General] kongo09:
Sorry, apparently it DID work. Titanium Backup was reporting a failure with root access, but that was down to a not-working BusyBox. Titanium downloaded an alternative, crashed with force close on restart but after a second restart it worked.

So potentially the first rooting without the 32bit libraries might have worked as well?

There is now a paid version of LauncherPro:

I have installed it but when I hit the "Home" button I don't get the option to switch to LauncherPro. I didn't have a previous version installed so I thought it would pick it up (I had tried a previous version and deleted it). What do I need to do to get the option to switch to it??

EDIT: Fixed using method in the next post. :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] tomykat:
From the home screen

Menu -> settings -> applications -> manage applications

From Manage Applications

Scroll to either

LauncherPro or twlauncher which ever is yoru default home screen and select "Clear Defaults" Then press the Home button and you should give you the option of which home screen to use.

I had gone to the Applications Manager but didn't select "All" to see the default launcher. Thanks for the help!

how do you like it? what's different about it other than that it has new widgets? i use adw and i preferred adw over it because it's way more customizable...just wondering if the new launcherpro plus is customizable.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Pneumatic:
I haven't used a bunch of different launchers but LauncherPro seems to be very customizable. I have changed all of the default icons and it looks really slick.

As soon as I get the drivers installed on my computer (which might end up being the subject of a whole other thread... grrr!) I will post some screenshots. :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] tq745:
download shootme from the market. it's an app that takes a shot of your homescreen...works like a charm
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] gravis86:
+1 I gave up on the drivers and just used Shootme. You need to be rooted, but that takes literally one minute so it's no big deal.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Pneumatic:
Nah I got the driver thing sorted out. :) Here is the screenshot (I shrunk it down a little and changed it to a .jpg to save some bandwidth). Don't judge the artistic value of the setup. I just plugged it up and took a screenshot to show what I did with the launcher in a few minutes of playing around.

The background is animated (those little images are flying slowly toward you like a star field kind of deal). I played around with the icons at the bottom just to see if I could change them from the default LauncherPro icons and that's as far as I got today. I don't know what's possible with other launchers but I like this one just fine. :)
[Vibrant General] s3gfault:
The contacts app that comes with touchwiz is pretty neat, but i have this question... On the groups tab i cannot seem to add any google contacts to any of the groups, has anyone gotten that to work? The tab is useless to me otherwise, I am only using google contacts, not contacts on the phone or sim or any social network.
[Vibrant General] manticore1977:
Apparently to be able to add any additional functionality to contacts (groups, separate ringtones, etc) they must be stored on the phone, which IMO defeats Androids main feature-syncing to GMail so you don't have to enter contacts into your phone again. It's a shame because I like most of the features of the TW Contacts app, but how can they not just use GMail as the default?
[Vibrant General] s3gfault:
Really, you can't set ringtones on google contacts either? That's quite awful.
[Vibrant General] caldjeff:
Agreed, this is a horrible implementation of contacts on Android. Why in the world would I want a "local" contact book that isn't in sync with my already awesome "cloud" contact book. That is a massive fail for TouchWiz in my book. That one thing alone might push me to a custom ROM when it becomes available.:confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustinChase:
I'm using DC 3.2.3, and using the music player with the blue speaker icon, not the default player.

when i open the player it seems to automatically look for music files to add; which is nice.

unfortunately, it selected 104 "music" files created by the free "Let's Golf"game I installed.

I can't find any way to remove these files from the playlist without actually deleting the files from the device.

I also can't find any way to select groups of music files and add just them to the playlist. I can play this list, but if I have a "rock" playlist and a "house" playlist, I'd like to play both of them, but not the "golf" files.

does anyone have any suggestions on how to facilitate this?

including using a different music player if possible.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
try this...

use your file explorer to locate the folder containing the sounds. first, backup the folder, in case this doesn't work. now, rename the folder with a period in front of the name. this tells linux that it's a hidden folder. open up your music app. if it reloads the library, it shouldn't see the renamed folder. if you still see it, it's probably because the list is being read from a cache. long press on the 'album' (folder) and select 'delete'. just delete it. all you're really doing is removing from the cache anyway. you should find that you still have the folder (albeit with a period in front of it) whereever it was, but now it is no longer in your list. confirm your game can see it even though it's hidden. presto, done.

i just tried it. worked fine. like i said, backup the folder somewhere in case it doesn't work. just copy/rename/move it back if it fails.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerryparid:

Some media players respect a .nomedia extention after the folder name. For instance MX player does. you could try that. Make sure you still have your backups of course.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenpoman:
You can create a new file in the directory that has the music you want to hide. Call it. .nomedia and then reboot your device. When the program scans for media it should bypass that folder
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rishabh13:
Best option is to search the entire directory for ".nomedia" string.

Hey there,

i was just wondering if there is a way to "downgrade my N1 in order to root" like it is told in the tut "root w/o unlocking"

I've already tried the "Stuck on FRF91?" tut but unfortunately N1 told me "Main version too old"...

Any solution on this?

Thanks a lot!

EDIT:

Hi again,

i was trying just another passimg.zip and with this, there is no "sorry, but main version too old" message - hboot just loads the image, checks and then goes back to "hboot main menu" w/o doing anything... any ideas? used this: 22607-ERD79-update-nexusone-stock-signed.zip

EDIT2:

EDIT :

tried to flash the FRF91 universal update...it says:"signature verification failed" or something like that...

EDIT: same happens, when i try to "update" the VF FRF91 again - is there any way to "reflash" such as a recovery/BACKUP? thanks!

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sean_Dillon:
I was having issues with the EPF30 VF firmware as well, eventually I had to unlock the boot loader then downgrade it to ERD79 once I did that I got the option for upgrading it OTA to FRF91 as I didn't want to root it. Looks like you may have to unlock it to get back down to ERD79 then root.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rondrian:
well, that is exactly the problem I got :) I don't want to unlock the BL until it is confirmed that there is no way to switch from VF FRF91 to US FRF91 (shouldn't it be nearly the same thing?)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GamerMYJ:
Hey guys from the EVO community! Im active in the marketplace (hehe), off-topic section, and the HD2 forums! Moving from WinMo, to my first android tomorrow morning, the EVO. having not have had a android before, I understand that rooting will give me access to something like cydia on jailbroken IPhones, but is flashing a custom ROM possible? I have seen people talking about how devs are missing certian things, but can we flash customs yet? Also, is it possible for me to get wired tethering without paying the 30$ fee for wireless? :P

Thanks guys, hope to have a amazing time with the EVO, sprint, and the community here on XDA! :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonpeinko:
When you root your phone, you will also install a recovery image. What the recovery does is it allows you to flash custom roms to your phone, along with some other functions like formatting your sdcard.

Most roms come with the wireless tether app that allows you to share your phones internet with your computer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerryparid:
1. Rooting (aka jailbreak) allows to gain root access (ie su, sudo on linux). Cydia equivalent is not needed since Google Marketplace DOES host applications that require root access. Even without root, you can install apk (ipa equivalent) downloaded from the net.

2. Flashing rom is fully possible

3. 2.1 Eclair roms are not missing anything. Most 2.2 Froyo roms are missing features. Cyanogen 6 is the most complete Froyo rom now. We'll probably get a mostly polished version in a few weeks.

4. Yes, you can tether for free. Almost all the custom roms contain wireless tether. Turns your phone into a wireless router. If you don't have a laptop, there is a wired tether hack somewhere (saw it a week ago on forum).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GamerMYJ:
Thanks guys. Ill try rooting my EVO as soon as I get it with this guide.

One thing about root, you install recovery img, then you install a rooted rom. If I want to do a custom ROM, do I have to do the recovery img again? Or straight to another ROM?

Also, what is the fastest, no sense, 2.1 ROM? (i need 4G, none on cyanogen yet, right?)

Also, whats NAND for?

Thanks, you've been a big help already :D

EDIT: Seems like using unrEVOked will take away 4g, is that true?
